workshop sign ups; group sign ups:

So, on Thursday, we took a look some form-y essays.  Our discussion of them was very productive--I'm impressed with the way you handled them.  So this post is going to be nuts and bolts.  I've retyped, and posted below, your workshop dates and the group sign-ups.  Also,  a question came to me via email, and I think it was a good one (I hope you don't mind, questioner, that I'm broadcasting your question for all to see).  Thus, I'm paraphrasing the conversation here.

The question was--how do I know if a subject is "outside of myself" enough to write about it for the personal essay?  Basically, a subject is far enough outside of yourself if it is researchable--if you can Google it or find information about it in a book.  

Ok, on to the workshop dates and group sign-ups:

  1. what is due tomorrow,2/3/09? The syllabus claims that we have a rough draft due. Is this true?

  2. linnea: you're probably getting this late, but the only essays due tomorrow are for those people (in this case, a single person) who are getting workshopped on Thursday. Depending on what group you're in, your essay is either due the 12th or the 15th.

    Super urgent questions--perhaps like this one?--can be directed to my email.
